My favorite is probably an early '80s beer mug that originally came filled with Fischer's Peanuts.

What Brian didn't mention here is the fact is he, myself, and maybe a couple of others, are the oldest in age members of this forum. Brian and I are both 65 and approaching double 6s. Me in June, him in October.

Color me jealous. I used to lurk around ebay for a particular neon sign, a big Seahawkslogo with "2005 NFC Champions". I think it was a Budweiser sign. I was going to disconnectthe "Budweiser" part and put it in the window like that leg lamp from A Christmas Story.

Sigh. I never found the exact one at a decent price and then I lost my obsession with it. Someday, maybe.

Hey Dino! If you don't mind me asking...What the heck would transpire to cause a 19-year-old from Scotland to become a fan of the Seattle Seahawks, who play a game barely seen outside the US? Not that there's anything wrong with that, it just strikes me as unlikely.

Alot of people outside US know about american football it just happens to be the sport i like the most we do have good coverage of NFL , we get to watch games when they are on we also get total access with rich eisen and the guys , nfl americas game showing past superbowl winning teams and we did get nfl playbook however "sky" (our huge british cable company) are renegotiating with nfl so the nfl footage on british tv isnt big right now as they are in the negotiating stage

Ahh, okay. I hadn't seen the intro thread...I'm frankly surprised at the coverage of American football over there. Listening to those here who are constantly promoting soccer, you'd think that was all that the entire rest of the world cared about or ever saw! Apparently, that isn't quite accurate. You guys ever watch Australian Rules football? I like watching that - it's sort of like rugby, more like American football, but without pads pretty much. Looks like a game we used to play in junior high school in the '70s called Munch (resulting in at least one concussion for Yours Truly), and seems like a good way to give blood. It's not on TV much here, but I watch it when it is.

So, Welcome Aboard! I personally have been a Seahawks Fan since we were awarded the franchise the year before we started playing.

David is being to kind here. He is one of the founding Fathers of this site and all of the old timers know that and thank him every day for the work he did in the early years. He was the original Lead Administrator and God bless him for not banning me years ago in my "fiesty" days.
